Just wanted to thank you for your assistance in placing Mrs. Towse and her
husband together. Although we regret loosing such a sweet lady here at our
nursing home, we felt it was important that she be with the love of her
life. Thanks for everything!

What about incontinence?
Most facilities are willing to care for bladder and/or bowel incontinence. Usually there is an additional charge of around $300/month and the resident or family must provide supplies.

My mother uses a wheelchair. Will that be a problem?
No. However some facilities may not have wide enough doorways or halls for a wheelchair. Seniors using walkers or wheelchairs must go to a facility licensed for non-ambulatory residents. People using canes are considered ambulatory.

Can a Board & Care or Assisted Living Facility provide diabetes care like special diets or insulin injections?
Most places can accommodate special diabetes diets. If the senior needs help with insulin injections they MUST be in a facility with a licensed nurse on staff. San Diego Care Placement knows where these places are! Self-care insulin dependant residents, however, can be at most any facility.

Grandpa needs hospice care? Does that limit my choices?
Yes, but San Diego Care Placement knows which facilities are licensed for Hospice care.

What about seniors with HIV, AIDS, or Hepatitis C?
These potentially contagious diseases require many additional precautions by care givers and facility administrators. State licensing is quite strict and may limit options considerably.

My Grandmother has a small dog she just HAS to keep!
Call us. We know which facilities allow pets. Usually a deposit is required.

I have a specific issue not covered here. Will you help?
Yes! We understand there are many health related issues. Also you may have personality, religious or ethnic issues or preferences. You will find the staff at San Diego Care Placement eager to answer your questions! We care and we can help!
